Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt an open preliminary hearing held remotely by CVP in Birmingham on 18 August 2020 before Employment Judge Dimbylow, the tribunal recorded that the unfair dismissal claim was dismissed by consent following the claimant's withdrawal of that claim. The judgment states that the claimant did not have the requisite two years' continuous service.
The tribunal refused the claimant permission to amend the claim form to add a breach of contract claim over notice and a claim for unpaid holiday pay. It also refused the application to amend the claim to include further public interest disclosures and further detriments referred to in the claimant's further particulars and amended further particulars. Those proposed additions were not determined on their substantive merits in this judgment.
The tribunal granted the claimant permission to rely on his further particulars of claim dated 9 June 2020 and amended further particulars dated 7 August 2020. The respondent's application to list the matter for a further open preliminary hearing to consider strike-out and/or a deposit order was refused and dismissed. No monetary award was made.

Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
